Supplement Dosage Calculator 2026: Evidence-Based Doses

The most-shared question we get: “How much should I take?” This free calculator returns the dose from peer-reviewed human RCTs β€” for 20+ popular supplements across 7 goal categories.

How To Use This Calculator

  1. Select supplement β€” choose from 20 evidence-backed compounds (creatine, magnesium, ashwagandha, omega-3, NMN, and more).
  2. Pick your goal β€” different goals = different doses. Sleep ashwagandha differs from athletic ashwagandha.
  3. Enter bodyweight β€” required only for weight-scaled doses (caffeine, protein). Optional otherwise.
  4. Read your dose + protocol β€” get the dose, timing, form, and important warnings.

Where Do These Doses Come From?

Every dose in this calculator is derived from peer-reviewed human clinical trials β€” not animal studies, not marketing claims. We apply our 5-criteria methodology:

  1. At least 2 well-designed human RCTs on healthy adults
  2. Measurable effect on validated outcomes (sleep scales, strength tests, blood markers)
  3. Bioavailable form at clinical dose
  4. Safety in long-term use
  5. Third-party verified product purity
